SOME PROJECTS

Our school successfully carried out 26 TUBITAK projects, 11 national and/or international projects and 9 social projects between 2008 and 2014. Our school has carried out lots of projects so far, it hasn’t implemented an Erasmus + project, which -we believe- is very important for a school to develop multicultural and cross-cultural relations among students and teachers. That is why we would like to carry out this Erasmus + project. On the other hand, with new teachers willing to do projects like E-twinning and Erasmus + and hardworking and eager students interested in European projects and developing friendship with other nationals, we believe that we can implement this project successfully.
